Developers to help with an app for indoor location

Hi guys, I’m currently completing my thesis in DIT and need an app to complete it. I need it to live track people moving and map out the route they have taken on a certain floor. Also i would need the beacons to notify each person who participates in this study i am conducting. I would need it coded in Java. I would need it developed as quick as possible. Thank you.

Hi Craig,

Hope this message finds you well.

Glad to tell you that, my skills perfectly matches your requirement. I have developed the application having following capabilities using ibeacons:

  1. Beacon monitoring and detection
  2. Beacon registration with user registration
  3. Location capturing
  4. Google or Apple Map integration to display location on map
  5. Ability to write generic beacon detection module that detects all types of beacons.
  6. Beacon detection in background mode
  7. Trigger notifications and actions as defined for the detection.

I have worked on several applications that detects the ibeacons and performs the actions once the ibeacon is detected. I have worked with several different types of ibeacons such as Estimote, Gimbal, Kontakt.io, Chinese ibeacons.

PS: I can share relevant portfolio and client reference in further communication.

Yes you can I have done it. I have set up Raspberry Pi’s and was able to trilateral the Beacons but due to the inconsistency in the RSSI and the upward curve at < 10 meters I ended up scrapping the project. But I can help you if you would like, my code is in node.js and .net I have made a website that tracks movement of beacons and displays them on a map on the website. If you don’t mind Raspberry Pi’s every 10 meters it works great. I am a Former Bell Lab Engineer that worked on VOIP.
